This five-bedroom semi-detached home on Fifth Road sits on a generous corner plot in a sought-after south Newbury road. Spacious reception rooms and a large kitchen provide flexible family living across multiple floors, while gas central heating and uPVC double glazing offer everyday comfort.
The property falls within the John Rankin and St Barts school catchments, making it well suited to families. Off-street parking via a long driveway and an attached garage add practicality, and the low-maintenance rear garden with patio gives safe outdoor space for children.
Some internal fittings date from the mid-20th century (notably the kitchen and bathrooms) and present clear scope for updating. Buyers should note council tax is above average. For those wanting more space or higher resale value, sensible modernisation would unlock the home's potential without structural alteration.
